Testimonials

“As we all know getting visas these day, is no easy task, so after speaking to several agencies, I decided to go with Christie’s Migration. I am so glad I did! It proved to be quite an ordeal to get our staff member sponsorship and in the end we did. Were it not for Belinda being one step ahead of the authorities, I am sure this is not the result we would have achieved, had I gone with another agent. Her professionalism and most importantly, her understanding of all the bureaucracy and what was required for the visa, is what got us over the line. I cannot thank her enough and would definitely recommend hers and the services of her team to anyone.”

— Kathy – TGS Performance Team Pty Ltd

“Belinda's work made it easy for our visas. Very efficient and lightning fast. I used others and from my experience Belinda is the best. Thankyou Belinda for all your help over the years.”

— Paul Mouat from Victoria

“I needed help with my marriage visa application and was struggling with other migration Agents, as they were just trying to grab my money, and ruin my life. Until one day i was listening to 89.9 life FM, and i heard an ad for Christie Migration Agents. When I called I explained my situation and I was in tears and Belinda re ensured me all be OK. So the next day i met up with Belinda at her office. Initially I was concerned with choosing a migration agent, after what we went through with other agents, seeing and talking to Belinda all changed it was more like talking to a long term friend. Belinda was the opposite to what I encountered in the past. Belinda listens to what I need to say and then Belinda gives you the right information with the positives and negatives. Belinda is very good at her job and has the love and passion for what she does and is truly there to help you. I particularly like that Belinda can be there when is needed, she returns your calls imminently as possible and her prices are very fair. I love that she is truly there when needed just like the time we had to leave to go offshore. I was so scared to leave Australia for my husband, Belinda made sure to stay up so we were safe on plane and same when we returned that we were safe back when re-entered Australia. She is an amazing person and Migration Agent. I would recommend Belinda Christie to all who are wanting to apply for a visa as Belinda Christie is the best in her job and best I have come across.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Up until now, all immigration lawyers have had to be registered migration agents as well. The laws will be changing on this soon, so any lawyer can give immigration advice even if they have no experience in this area. A registered migration agent specialises in all Australian Migration Law and remains accountable to the Office of the Migration Agents Registration Association. The only task an agent can’t do that a lawyer can is to take a matter to court. This in itself is extremely rare for a case to go to court for an immigration matter. A registered migration agent has the knowledge and accountability and specialises in only migration law giving you the expertise required for your immigration needs.

The Department of Home Affairs requires you to pay a visa application fee when lodging the application. They do not refund this fee if they refuse the visa. At Christie Migration Agents we work as hard as we can and use our expertise to gain a favourable outcome for you. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that the visa will be granted but we will do everything in our power to give you the best chance. We will always be honest from the beginning about your chances for success. Therefore, our fees are also non-refundable if the visa application is refused.

There are several factors that will determine this. It will depend if you are holding a substantive visa when you apply for your next visa. It will depend on the type of visa you apply for. It will also depend on the conditions of your current visa. If you meet the requirements, at the time of lodging for a further visa, you will be issued a bridging visa. This visa allows you to remain in Australia lawfully whilst your visa application is being processed. The conditions that will be imposed on your visa will be determined depending on the visa you are applying for and the visa you were holding when you made the application. The bridging visa will not come into effect until the visa you were holding at the time you applied for a further visa ceases. Therefore, if you are on a tourist visa and you apply for a partner visa 1 month prior before your tourist visa ceases, you will remain on the tourist visa until the end of your tourist visa and will remain subject to the conditions on the tourist visa even if the bridging visa does not have the same conditions.
